Can't visualize large PDF

Created attachment 364851 [details] messy call graph of open-ssh Hi, I generated a messy and large PDF with the call graph of openssh. The file it's hard to visualize in general. I can somehow browse it in Chrome, but in Firefox I can't see the labels on focus. In Evince instead it renders nothing.
Thanks for your report. Running pdftocairo (a tool provided by Poppler, the library used by Evince to render PDF) shows some errors: $ pdftocairo -png CG.pdf CG Internal Error: cairo context error: invalid value (typically too big) for the size of the input (surface, pattern, etc.)<0a> cairo error: invalid value (typically too big) for the size of the input (surface, pattern, etc.) libpng warning: Image width is zero in IHDR libpng warning: Image height is zero in IHDR libpng error: Invalid IHDR data Internal Error: Error during writing header Error writing CG-1.png Running pdftoppm complains about memory: $ pdftoppm CG.pdf CG Bogus memory allocation size Interesting enough: Acroread shows an empty page, and FoxItReader seems to be more permissive with errors and such. It seems to me this is an issue in Poppler, not Evince. Please file a bug in Poppler's bug tracker: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=poppler Once you do it, please feel free to add a reference of the bug number in Poppler.
Thanks, I reported it to Poppler at: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104088
